OFTHE
ARTWORK
Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

OFTHE
ARTWORK
Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

OFTHE
ARTWORK
Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around
You offer a range of works from thesmaller and more attainable to those ofsignificant scale and value What basicadvice do you offer the novice collectorBuy what you love and enjoy the journeyItrsquos a lot of fun
You have also been very proactive inthe community supporting local charitiesHow do you see the art world best affect-ing these various groupsThere are a lot of great non-profit organi-zations out there doing a lot of wonderfulthings for the communities they supportWe try to focus our efforts on the local or-ganizations of course and those thatspecifically work to help children and thearts Some of the organizations that wehave committed to are JDRF of OrangeCounty The Pacific Symphony and Carl StClairersquos Arts Express Program the LagunaCollege of Art and Design and Free Artsfor Abused Children We are continuallylooking for innovative ways to provide sup-port whether it be in arts education print-making workshops or providingfundraising support

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

OFTHE
ARTWORK
Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

OFTHE
ARTWORK
Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

OFTHE
ARTWORK
Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

OFTHE
ARTWORK
Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around
You offer a range of works from thesmaller and more attainable to those ofsignificant scale and value What basicadvice do you offer the novice collectorBuy what you love and enjoy the journeyItrsquos a lot of fun
You have also been very proactive inthe community supporting local charitiesHow do you see the art world best affect-ing these various groupsThere are a lot of great non-profit organi-zations out there doing a lot of wonderfulthings for the communities they supportWe try to focus our efforts on the local or-ganizations of course and those thatspecifically work to help children and thearts Some of the organizations that wehave committed to are JDRF of OrangeCounty The Pacific Symphony and Carl StClairersquos Arts Express Program the LagunaCollege of Art and Design and Free Artsfor Abused Children We are continuallylooking for innovative ways to provide sup-port whether it be in arts education print-making workshops or providingfundraising support

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

OFTHE
ARTWORK
Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

Since opening this location in 1997 owners Richard Jr and wife Ariane Mac-Donald have created something unique to the area While primarily devoted to thepresentation of incredible work by sculptor Richard MacDonald Sr the gallery alsohosts and exhibits work by many American Masters Adjacent to the gallery is aspacious and magical sculpture garden that should not be missed The collectornovice and experienced alike can enjoy and acquire works by artists represented inthe permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York theGuggenheim Museum the Chicago Art Institute and the Museum of Modern Art inSan Francisco The MacDonalds believe in community too and support local com-munity and charities Dawson Cole Fine Art represents a standard in the galleryworld and an ideal partner for bettering the local community
How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

OFTHE
ARTWORK
Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

OFTHE
ARTWORK
Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015

Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

OFTHE
ARTWORK
Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem
23LOCALARTSCOM
Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

OFTHE
ARTWORK
Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

OFTHE
ARTWORK
Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015

Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

OFTHE

Walking through Mia Tavonattirsquosloft and studio is like walking into aperfectly curated gallery with only lit-tle nooks of mess and organizedchaos I gravitated to the first messynook I could find to explore and diveinto her world A bottom floor studiofull of organized and labeled boxescrates and shelves surrounding alarge work table covered in hundredsof tiny pieces of colored glass withwhat looked like a glimpse of awomanrsquos face and red curls peekedthrough the shiny sea of glass shardsand squares She picks up a dustingbrush and brushes aside whole pilesof the tiny colored squares with only afew quick motions She speaks withpoised candor admitting that thesemasterful works are long and labor-in-tensive fights with color and percep-tion They are not as simple and easyas the final product makes them seem

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

Tavonatti hosts small contemporaryart exhibitions out of her loft galleryTavonatti Gallery at the City Place Lofts inSanta Ana and brings light to talentedartists she knows and works with in theOrange County area
She has been a professor in painting atLaguna College of Art and Design (LCAD)for over 20 years and with the students ofLCAD Tavonatti helped organize and exe-cute the largest and most visible murals inall of Orange County She continues to co-ordinate large murals for Orange Countyaiming to help invigorate the communityand inspire younger generations to con-stantly create love and live bravely
Her mosaic work is unlike any otherIrsquove seen With extreme precision and apainterly flow of light and shadowthroughout the tiled glass her works takeon light and life like a painting with easeand natural progression Tavonatti wastrained as an illustra-tor and painter shehad no interest in tilework glass work ormosaics early on inher careermdashnow sheis sought after theworld over for theseincredible labor-in-tensive pieces of artTavonatti admittedthat it was in partthanks to peer pres-sure from a confidentfriend Jack Jakosky(who now owns theLogan Creative Center
and the Santora Building in downtownSanta Ana) who helped her start her mo-saic practice She started with one smalljob of nine mosaic murals at Newport Ele-mentary School and found a new prac-tice in her work
Though her stature is small and sunnythis creative machine is a force to bereckoned with Constantly working on fas-cinating commissions her waiting list forcustom artwork grows and grows Spend-ing over 300 hours on a small new mo-saic piece Tavonatti is critical anddedicated to her craft
Tavonatti has won 1st and 2nd placein the esteemed ArtPrize competitionHer 2011 submission of a crucified glassmosaic Jesus Christ won the $250000grand prize at ArtPrizemdashthe same morn-ing that Tavonattirsquos mother died ThoughTavonatti is not a religious person by na-ture her art seems to be her spiritual
guide and she hasfound the Catholicand Christian churchvery welcoming toher and her work re-gardless of the com-position
In 2007Tavonatti moved toItaly to complete andexhibit her largestpainting series todate Svelata mean-ing ldquounveiledrdquo or ldquore-vealedrdquomdashalso thename of her humani-

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around
You offer a range of works from thesmaller and more attainable to those ofsignificant scale and value What basicadvice do you offer the novice collectorBuy what you love and enjoy the journeyItrsquos a lot of fun
You have also been very proactive inthe community supporting local charitiesHow do you see the art world best affect-ing these various groupsThere are a lot of great non-profit organi-zations out there doing a lot of wonderfulthings for the communities they supportWe try to focus our efforts on the local or-ganizations of course and those thatspecifically work to help children and thearts Some of the organizations that wehave committed to are JDRF of OrangeCounty The Pacific Symphony and Carl StClairersquos Arts Express Program the LagunaCollege of Art and Design and Free Artsfor Abused Children We are continuallylooking for innovative ways to provide sup-port whether it be in arts education print-making workshops or providingfundraising support

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

tarian foundation This series of large oilpaintings is breathtaking in person Mostlycomposed of women veiled in cloth andwater her Svelata series dives into the inti-mate and personal journey for womeneverywhere using water and drapery asgreat technical details as well as symbolicitems in her narratives Each of the 20paintings explore the female identity therelationship between man and woman orpersonal journey Her monumental seriesSvelata debuted at the ancient Museo Ar-senale in Amalfi the land of the sirensmdashtruly fitting for this series
Last year Tavonatti served as Artist-in-Residence at Fullerton College and alsohad a solo exhibition in their gallery in Feb-ruary of 2013 She also donated herEMERGE painting to their permanent col-lection She also had invasive brain surgeryto remove a 5-centimeter tumor that hadbeen causing her painful migraines andpartial blindness in both eyes Accordingto Tavonatti this ldquohunk of junkrdquo as shecalled it was her mental and emotionalbaggage and after having it successfullyremoved she felt more mentally and phys-ically healthy than she ever had beforeHer newly healthy and invigorated lifegave her new motivation even throughhard times like losing family It was a trans-formative year for her to say the least
Now Tavonatti has a new lease on lifewithout guilt baggage or pain She ispreparing to enter the contemporarygallery scene Shersquos been making a livingcreating artwork by commissions foryears but has never been represented bya gallery Her work belongs to major col-lections museums and institutions all overthe world but she has even only been in ahandful of gallery exhibitions in her whole
career But Tavonatti recently announcedthat Cocco and Salem Gallery in KeyWest Florida will be hosting her first soloexhibition in February 2015
Her foundation Svelata Foundation forthe Arts gives scholarships and grants toartists and art students across the coun-try Over the past few years Svelata hasbeen focusing on a collaborative art proj-ect Power of Words Projects which bringsprofessional artists and art student to-gether with members of the community tocreate large murals representing a chosenword for a citywide mural project LagunaBeach has a WONDER mural along with afew other cities in varying states acrossthe country Svelata gives scholarshipsand grants to selected participants inthese projects to further support the pro-gram and the art community of the area
Her name Mia comes from the nameMya meaning ldquothe illusion of liferdquo or ldquotheveil of liferdquo Her workmdashboth painting andmosaicmdashreflects so much of herself bothvisually and symbolically looking at oneof her paintings murals or mosaic piecesseems like yoursquore looking into an intimatewindow to her soul It is important toTavonatti to have her work be relative tothe viewers but she admits that makingher work be a personal expression seemsto connect to more people on a deeperlevel than her early work which kept thesubject matter very open
Her artwork is powerful and profoundThe style of much of the work has a touchof dream-like atmosphere but isweighted in realism and honesty She cre-ates an emotional depth that connectsyou to the artwork longer and longer asyou stare at one of her masterful works See more at httpwwwmiatavonatticom

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

Since opening this location in 1997 owners Richard Jr and wife Ariane Mac-Donald have created something unique to the area While primarily devoted to thepresentation of incredible work by sculptor Richard MacDonald Sr the gallery alsohosts and exhibits work by many American Masters Adjacent to the gallery is aspacious and magical sculpture garden that should not be missed The collectornovice and experienced alike can enjoy and acquire works by artists represented inthe permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York theGuggenheim Museum the Chicago Art Institute and the Museum of Modern Art inSan Francisco The MacDonalds believe in community too and support local com-munity and charities Dawson Cole Fine Art represents a standard in the galleryworld and an ideal partner for bettering the local community
How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the
DDawson Cole Fine Art is one of Southern Californiarsquosmost notable and celebrated art galleries It is conve-niently located in the heart of downtown Laguna Beach on Glenneyre Street just footsteps from Forest Avenue

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around
You offer a range of works from thesmaller and more attainable to those ofsignificant scale and value What basicadvice do you offer the novice collectorBuy what you love and enjoy the journeyItrsquos a lot of fun
You have also been very proactive inthe community supporting local charitiesHow do you see the art world best affect-ing these various groupsThere are a lot of great non-profit organi-zations out there doing a lot of wonderfulthings for the communities they supportWe try to focus our efforts on the local or-ganizations of course and those thatspecifically work to help children and thearts Some of the organizations that wehave committed to are JDRF of OrangeCounty The Pacific Symphony and Carl StClairersquos Arts Express Program the LagunaCollege of Art and Design and Free Artsfor Abused Children We are continuallylooking for innovative ways to provide sup-port whether it be in arts education print-making workshops or providingfundraising support
And last what would you like to see inthe future of art in LagunaBeachLaguna Beach historicallyhas had such a rich arts-ori-ented community Since2007 we have seen the de-cline in the number of activeart galleries as have somany other communitiesMy hope is that as we returnto a healthier economymany of the galleries returnAgain the arts are such anintegral part of this commu-nity as are the art galleriesand itrsquos just not the samewithout them Visit Dawson Cole Fine Art at 326Glenneyre (949) 497-4988 daw-soncolefineartcom Open dailyand during First Thursdayrsquos ArtWalk (the first Thursday of eachmonth) from 6 pm to 9 pm

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around
You offer a range of works from thesmaller and more attainable to those ofsignificant scale and value What basicadvice do you offer the novice collectorBuy what you love and enjoy the journeyItrsquos a lot of fun
You have also been very proactive inthe community supporting local charitiesHow do you see the art world best affect-ing these various groupsThere are a lot of great non-profit organi-zations out there doing a lot of wonderfulthings for the communities they supportWe try to focus our efforts on the local or-ganizations of course and those thatspecifically work to help children and thearts Some of the organizations that wehave committed to are JDRF of OrangeCounty The Pacific Symphony and Carl StClairersquos Arts Express Program the LagunaCollege of Art and Design and Free Artsfor Abused Children We are continuallylooking for innovative ways to provide sup-port whether it be in arts education print-making workshops or providingfundraising support
And last what would you like to see inthe future of art in LagunaBeachLaguna Beach historicallyhas had such a rich arts-ori-ented community Since2007 we have seen the de-cline in the number of activeart galleries as have somany other communitiesMy hope is that as we returnto a healthier economymany of the galleries returnAgain the arts are such anintegral part of this commu-nity as are the art galleriesand itrsquos just not the samewithout them Visit Dawson Cole Fine Art at 326Glenneyre (949) 497-4988 daw-soncolefineartcom Open dailyand during First Thursdayrsquos ArtWalk (the first Thursday of eachmonth) from 6 pm to 9 pm

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

How have you grown changed since then What new directions are you going inor wanting to exploreThe gallery opened in Laguna Beach in 1997 and since that time we have changedquite considerably In addition to representing my fatherrsquos outstanding sculpturalworks we have expanded to represent some of the finest representational artistsworking today including Chuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan The group of artists we represent include top-level museum artists which we are privilegedto exhibit
Can you tell us about your curation process Aside from your Fatherrsquos work howdo you pick artists And can you talk about a few of the artists you representOur goal has always been and continues to be to represent the finest representa-tional artists in the country We exhibit works by both established artists such asChuck Close Wayne Thiebaud and Donald Sultan we also dedicate a portion of ourcollection to the younger emerging artists like Tom Betts James Galindo and mid-levelcareer artists Nancy Bush and Jim Lamb When it comes to artist consideration the

quality of the work is paramount and aswe work to expand we are looking to rep-resent a greater range of artists styles andsubject matter However I will say that theselection process is very thorough at timesintense and takes time ndash sometimes yearsAs a child raised in the arts and sur-rounded by artists my entire life I becamevery cognizant and sensitive to thedealerartist relationship ndash the relation-ships we have with our artists are very im-portant and itrsquos important going in that weare all on the same page
Your Father was recently honored inBarcelona Spain at MEAM Can youelaborate on that experienceMy wife Ariane and I were recently inBarcelona for my fatherrsquos exhibition at theMuseum of European Modern Art ndash the lo-cals call it MEAM Banners lined thestreets of Barcelona announcing the showfeaturing three signature works includingNureyev Blind Faith and Sissone The mu-seum is amazing ndash the collection is housedin a structure built in the 17th century andsits adjacent to the Picasso Museum indowntown Barcelona The exhibit repre-
sents a major retrospectiveof my fatherrsquos work and in-cludes 65 works rangingfrom the smaller studies tothe larger heroic works Theexhibition also includes a fewof his original paintings anddrawings The Barcelonianshave a great love of the artsand are very passionateabout the arts There wereover 550 people there forthe opening of the exhibitand it was fantastic to seetheir love for Richard Mac-Donald his work and for thefigurative arts in general Itwas a great time all around

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc

Honoring The Art of
German Expressionist Ernst Kirchner
Ernst Kirchner Nollendorfplatz 1912
carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

urrently on display at the Los AngelesCounty Museum of Art is a truly historicexhibition Expressionism from Germanyand France which presents Expressionismas an international movement in an un-precedented way on an immense scaleThe exhibit clearly traces how artists wereresponding to the pioneering Post-Impres-sionistic works of Van Gogh Paul Ceacutezanneand Paul Gauguin and then building uponthese ideas while creating the early twen-tieth century movements of Fauvism Ex-pressionism and Cubism The extensiveexhibition features ninety paintings andfourth-five works on paper and canviewed as a conversation amongst theseartists responding to each other in themost vital and immediate ways during anincredibly fertile period of imaginationand change for art during the early twenti-eth century
Specifically this exhibition is bringing to-gether French and German works wonder-fully accompanied by the historical context ofwhen and where the works were exhibitedcollected and seen by artists This show at-tempts to recapture a historical moment ofgreat artistic inspiration Viewers can see theunfolding of several pivotal movements of theearly twentieth century letting the paintings

themselves be the documents that visuallytell the story of the ideas behind them
Viewers of this exhibition can see first-hand how Van Goghs textures in thicklypainted impasto his use of bright emo-tionally expressive color and his attemptsat showing something deeper than justthe surface of a scene inspired the nextgeneration of artists after him to take thisconcept even further Alongside VanGoghs inspiration viewers can see howGauguin commingled the physical realityof his subjects with emotional and spiri-tual realities painted in curvilinear con-tours and bright blocks of color Gauguinsfascination with non-Western cultures es-pecially seen in his paintings completedwhile he lived in Tahiti (which includes the1901 work Polynesian Woman With Chil-dren on display in this show) provided ad-ditional inspiration for the next generationof artists
In the same room as various Van Goghand Gauguin paintings one can view howthe next generation of artists like the Ger-man Expressionists Ernst Kirchner (seefeature pg 61) or Max Pechstein paintedtheir figurative subjects with bright colorsin order to show their emotional realityalongside their physical one These artistsbegan to take Van Goghs and Gauguinsideas even further with brighter colors

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

and more and more abstract leanings asthe ideas of Cubism came into play Inspira-tion from non-Western cultures as seen inGauguins work was also deeply en-trenched in the work of the German Ex-pressionist movement Die Bruumlcke (TheBridge) Die Bruumlcke artists including ErnstKirchner and Erich Heckel were inspired byfolk art and non-Western artistic traditionswhich can be clearly seen in the bold linesof their printmaking work and angular ap-proach to the figure in numerous paintingson display in this show
his exhibition wonderfully shows howthese movements naturally responded toeach other as if in immediate and inspiredconversation This can most clearly be seen
in how the ideas of Cubism and Abstractionare introduced into the show From the tex-tural approach to a landscape of a Van Goghto the great forms of Franz Marcs paintingsthe ideas of Cubism breaking the world fur-ther down to shapes as seen in Robert De-launeys Eiffel Tower are a naturalprogression Likewise when artists like VanGogh or Gauguin attempted to show both thephysical world mixed with the spiritual andemotional world artists like Ernst Kirchnertook that further with his emotionally chargedfigures as seen in Street Berlin This exhibi-tion also clearly shows how taking all physi-cally recognizable objects out of a work tosolely show the emotional experience as seenin the abstract work of Wassily Kandisnkywas a natural progression from these ideas
Most importantly thoughviewers can see how each of theseartists contributed importantideas to the twentieth centurywith each of their independentlydirected careers Each artist waspart of the visual conversationyet every one of these worksshown in this exhibition from thesmallest work on paper to thelargest of paintings stands on itsown as contributing to the historyof art as we know it to this dayConsidering some of the roughroads some of these artists andtheir paintings endured from VanGogh not living to see his workbeing acclaimed to the GermanExpressionists and all modern artin Germany being condemned byHitler during World War II wecannot celebrate this workenough

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc
The movements manifesto re-veals the movements youthful ideal-ism We call all young peopletogether and as young people who

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

nytime I come across an Ernst Kirchner paintingin a museum I cannot help but stand before it in rever-ence for longer than I usually might before most greatworks of the twentieth century Kirchners works have anemotional depth and intensity that emanates from themthat one could feel regardless of knowing anythingabout the artist or his fate One could still gather an im-mense amount of profound humanity from his works
even if one just casually read the museum placardnext the work Ernst Ludwig Kirchner 1880-1938 and did not know the significance of thedate 1938 and Kirchners ultimately tragic storyKnowing the story I feel gives his work a greateremotional weight
Kirchner was a founding member of the Ger-man Expressionist group called Die Bruumlcke (The
Bridge) which formed in 1905around the same time as their con-temporaries in France Les Fauves(The Wild Beasts) were carrying onVan Goghs legacy of bright expres-sive colors and thick impasto oilpaint Die Bruumlcke sought to create abridge between the past present andfuture with their art style by re-sponding to the styles of GermanRenaissance painting and printmak-ing masters such Albrecht Duumlrer andMatthias Gruumlnewald while creatingin step with contemporary interna-tional avant-garde movements likeLes Fauves and another German Ex-pressionist group Der Blaue Reiter(The Blue Rider) which includedWassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42

carry the future in us we want towrest freedom for our actionsand our lives from the oldercomfortably established forcesWhile the group disbanded in1911 the artists involved main-tained their individual careerswhich the group helped themeach establish Kirchner becameknown for his vibrant oil paint-ing compositions which par-tially influenced by some Cubistideas often distorted perspec-tive in angular forms Kirchneras well as many of his contem-poraries also included influ-ences from African art or othernon-Western art forms in theirbright patterns forms and de-pictions of the figure
The most important goal ofKirchner and his fellow Expres-sionists was to go far deeperthan painting the surface ofthings as they saw the Impres-sionists before them as solelydoing Like the pioneering painters Van Gogh andGauguin who painted both physical emotional andspiritual realities together on the same surface theGerman Expressionists like Kirchner wanted to ex-press something more deeply soulful emotionaland spiritual as he eluded to in the manifesto ofDie Bruumlcke Anyone who directly and honestly re-produces that force which impels him to create be-longs to us This force be it explained as aconnection to the divine within each individual or thevery inexplicable energetic force which gives each ofus life and the desire to create and do and connectthis force seems to emanatefrom Kirchners canvases
Tragically both World Warshad negative consequences forthe German Expressionists andespecially Kirchner Kirchnerenlisted in World War I but suf-fered a mental breakdown whileon duty and was sent home Hewas hospitalized for some timein Switzerland to recover fromhis illness He eventually settledin Switzerland and continued topaint and exhibit his workthrough the rest of his life Hiswork was highly respected inthe contemporary art world butbecause he was consistentlycreating on the cutting edge ofpainting in the early twentieth century he sometimesreceived mixed reviews amongst critics
When Hitler came to power in 1933 everythingchanged for modern artists in Germany BecauseHitler hated modern art his policies forced modernartists to resign from positions teaching at art acad-emies or as museums directors and the Nazi partydid a clean sweep of Germanys museums remov-ing all the modern art from their walls Hitler con-sidered all modern art entartete or degenerate
because it was often inspired by non-Western cultureswhich his racist doctrine deemed inferior Kirchner wasforced to resign from the Prussian Academy of Arts andwrote shortly afterwards Here we have been hearingterrible rumors about torture of the Jews but itrsquos allsurely untrue Irsquom a little tired and sad about the situationup there (in Germany) There is a war in the air In themuseums the hard-won cultural achievements of thelast 20 years are being destroyed and yet the reasonwhy we founded the Bruumlcke was to encourage truly Ger-man art made in Germany And now it is supposed to beun-German Dear God It does upset me
In 1937 Hitler created atouring art exhibition calledEntartete Kunst (DegenerateArt) which featured the mod-ern art which the Nazis hadconfiscated from Germanysmuseums The show was heldin dark cramped spaces andwas designed to mock the artworks which it featured A totalof 639 works by Kirchner hadbeen taken out of Germanysmuseums and 25 were fea-tured in the Entartete Kunstshow Despite this tragic blowto his art career Kirchner con-tinuing to work through 1938Though once Austria wastaken over by Germany Kirch-
ner grew increasingly fearful that Switzerland toowould be invaded On the 15th of June 1938 Kirchnershot himself in front of his home in Switzerland
Truly Kirchner was another victim of Hitlers war agreat artist who lost the majority of his careers works toa fascist leaders racist policies So whenever I see awork of Kirchners- along with any of the other effectedGerman Expressionists- displayed with honor and re-spect I must linger a while and pay my own respects See related LACMA feature pg 42
